Avignon Grand Hotel - Aviñón

This hotel was very comfortable, but is has a big hotel feel, somewhat generic. It is close to the old city and just down from the railway station. You need to get a transfer from the TGV station into town, but its cheap.

Location - is excellent, you can get to the main shopping street and local bars and restaurants for a few minutes walk. Although our room looked out onto a busy road there was no traffic noise due to double glazing/sound proofing. The rooms are spacious with two double beds and a sitting area- only complaint would be that the bathroom (shower) was slightly in need of a refurb and the bath was a bit small - very clean though...also for some reason we were short of coat hangers. Plenty of storage room though... We ate in the restaurant one night due to not wanting to go out in a thunder storm. Restaurant is typically hotel - atmosphere a bit stark, but food good and service was friendly. Restaurant a bit short staffed though - so be prepared to have a long meal. The staff on the front desk are effecient and friendly, their english is excellent and the garden just outside was very pretty although be aware you can hear the railway as it is very close to the hotel.

The location of this hotel is great, right next to the Central Train Station, Shuttle stop for the TGV, and the Rue de La Republique --- the main shopping drag of Avignon. A standard room is very spacious --- with a sitting room, nice bathroom, and two double beds. The beds/linens/pillows were fine, but not great. There is a nice little rooftop pool for lounging, and a nice lobby for coffee/drinks and free wifi access.

We were forced to book this hotel as we planned a stay in Avignon without realising the arts festival was on. This was literally the last room within walking distance of the old city. It was really overpriced and service was appalling. We had to wait till 3pm to gain access to our room, which seemed bad until a woman arriving after us was told she had to wait till 4pm. She seemed to have just arrived from a long journey and was furious. The staff didn't even apologise. When we did get access to the room, the wooden floors had not been dusted properly and there were discarded cigarette butts on the terrace. We booked a superior room with two double queen beds. The room was about the same size as a normal room, and the beds were iron pull out beds, with lumpy, hard mattresses and odd pillows. Our room looked out over a building site with the railway behind. Were it not for the fact that we wanted to have easy access to the old town we would have moved. We met someone who had encountered the same problem with lack of accommodation in Avignon and they chose to stay in Arles with a 15 min train ride away. I think that would be preferable or book at least 3 months in advance to assure a nice place in Avignon.

Just outside the town wall, this was a bit of a strange place. It was comfortable enough, and we booked a double room and got a full suite. Even though it was summer it seemed quite empty. And you had to walk up the main street to get to the Palais des Papes and other historical sites, and the main street was a bit dodgy in the evening. So even though we had nothing to complain about, really, it still just didn't seem quite right.

a very good hotel with large comfortable rooms, located within walking distance to main attractions in Avignon, and right next to the train station.

My husband and I stayed in the Grand Hotel in Avignon in October for 3 nights. Our room was a suite which was spacious. Bath with separate shower cubicle and mini bar. Continental breakfast extra at 16 euros was a bit pricey but plenty to choose from. Hotel was right next door to the railway station. The Palais de Papes and the famous bridge of Avignon were only a ten minute walk away.

This hotel was fine. We had a car and you could park there, but there were other hotel in the heart of the old city which might have been better.

This hotel is superb. Our room had AC and faced north - Avignon was very hot! Room was great - 2 double beds - sitting room - shower and bath! Swimming pool was divine - especially after a day out - or early sunbathing sessions! Staff were very helpful at all times. Short walk to Avignon Centre for restaurants, supermarket (Shopi) etc. Train station even nearer for trips out to other Provencal towns - Arles, Nimes etc. We had a very enjoyable week!

This was a delightful hotel mto xtay in. Just a short walk into the old centre and Avignon awaits.

Very nice 4-Star hotel - Right near the train station if you want to visit other cities like Nimes nearby. Liked the Suite style so my friend could watch TV while I slept.

A nice hotel with spacious rooms and lovely balcony overlooking the city. Close to the centre,restaurants and bars so a great location. Also close to the train station which was useful for car hire and a free car park right opposite. No tea or coffee facillities in the room but room service available. Buffet breakfast ok but expensive.

The Avignon Grand is a gorgeous hotel with beautiful rooms. My room wasn't ready when I checked in so they upgraded me to a suite with a private, gardened terrace for no charge. The lobby and garden are lovely, the staff is exceedingly courteous and the restaurant is fairly good.

We came to celebrate a special birthday,the hotel was lovely very friendly.It is located brilliantly not in the heart but just outside which was perfect for us not to far from the train station but ideal for catching the local bus. We could not fault the hotel at all and look forward to returning.

Great location to relax and enjoy Avignon as well as surrounding countryside. The hotel is just outside city walls next to the train station. I was concerned about possible noise issues, but the soundproofing was excellent! We didn't hear a thing. Our room had a comfortable balcony on which we could relax and enjoy the beautiful weather and sip wine. We loved our stay in this beautiful city!

This hotel is just outside of the walled part of the city of Avignon. Very nice, clean, simple room. Hotel grounds are simple with nice reception area. Photos on this site are definately representative of the hotel. The center of the city is just a few blocks away. We were visiting Avignon for the first time, this was a good place to stay.

Very well run, clean and roomy. Only downside is that it's a hike to get to Avignon Center.

The room was spacious enough and clean. Although the furniture is not brandnew and well designed, we could stay very comfortably.

The hotel was very good. The room was spacy and clean and comfortable and the service was polite. Thanks

Ανετο δωμάτιο αλλά με ιδιόμορφη μυρωδια ενοχλητική από τις τουαλέτες!!!

Hôtel très beau et super classe. Seul repproche : quartier pas top et un peu trop près de la route et des voies de train...

Hotel très calme tout près du centre ville d'Avignon . Très pratique d'accès. Décoration agréable et service soigné.

Décors magnifique. Bien placé aux abords de la vieille ville (intramuros), mobilier sympa, chambre supérieure très agréable avec salle de bains comprenant douche et baignoire. Petit déjeuner décevant en terme de quantité proposée, en terme de réapprovisionnement du buffet, en terme de réactivité du personnel. Nous n'avons pas testé le restaurant de l'hôtel.

Ein TOP-Hotel in ausgezeichneter Lage.

Sejour agréable pendant le festival

Vi "råkade" boka det här ganska snoffsiga hotellet på internet, betalade nog bara hälften av vad rummet hade kostat på plats vilket kändes mycket lyxigt. Men vi kom dit sent på kvällen och sov bara en natt så vi kunde inte riktigt njuta av den extra lyxen. Rummet var fint och fräsht, två stora dubbelsängar fanns det. Men när vi skulle "simma" på fm innan utcheckning visade det sig att poolen på taket var en rund liten ankdamm med diameter på kanske 5 meter så det blev att plaska lite bara. Trevligt till det pris vi fick men alltför överdådigt annars.

lækkert hotel, mangler dog skilte til parkering som er public park under hotellet - kæmpe store værleser - super lækre - lige uden for muren ved gare SNCF - 15 mins gang til pave pladset

Das Superior-Zimmer machte optisch einen guten Eindruck. Obwohl im Hotel angeblich seit Jahren nicht mehr geraucht werden darf, roch war der Rauch noch deutlich zu riechen. Lüften war auch nicht möglich, weil dann zum Fenster Küchendünste hereinzogen. Etwas schien auch mit der Lüftung im Bad nicht in Ordnung zu sein, denn vom 2. Tag an breitete sich dort ein leichter Kloakengeruch aus. Schade, dass das Hotelpersonal kein Verständnis für diese Probleme aufbrachte.
